Okay guys, the one thing I have learned from reading the Lyman Shot shell book and the Ballistic Products manuals is this...if you change a single thing in a published recipe
Now it seems that what ever wad I buy is used only for the one recipe I found. I am loading slugs and buckshot in new hulls (Cheddite, Rio, etc) and roll crimping. Ballistic products emails me almost every week with a bulk shipping offer. So, what is the most "useful" selection of wads? I already figured out I need some Federal 12SO wads. What other wads are the most common.
On another note is there any place to get the information in the loading manuals as a spreadsheet? I am just getting started on shot shell loading and I would like to be able to sort the loads by components. As an example I bought the .310 round ball mold from Track of the Wolf. I have several mayonnaise jars full of shot. I would like to sort the loads by that component. This shotgun stuff is confusing for someone who has been loading metallic since Nixon was in office.
Thanks,
Randy
